2024 ELDERS LISMORE SHOW

The Northern Rivers community and beyond are invited to come along and enjoy this year’s Elders North Coast National Lismore Show that will be held on 17, 18 and 19 October.

North Coast National A & I Society President John Gibson said the popular Show would return with all the usual favourites, as well as what are sure to become new favourites, like Pop Zone.

“Every year, the show evolves and this year I am happy to announce we will be hosting Pop Zone, including Cosplay, for the frst time. It is where fantasy and imagination rule,” he said.

“I am also happy to announce that this year, we will also host prestigious National and State Woodchop titles, attracting the best contestants from across the country and state.

“This year we also have a Chill and Charge zone, which is a quiet zone for people to relax and recharge themselves and their phones.”

“It is not long until October so now is the time to get ready for the return of our regular popular competitions and exhibitions. We already have some great attractions booked including the Ashton circus that will perform throughout each day and Monster Trucks.

“The very popular

FMX bikes will return, along with a petting zoo, a Lego competition for schools, reptiles, jet packs, freworks and a community stage with a range of local acts.

“The Show has been at the heart of our community since 1885 and is where memories are made. I invite everyone to come along this year to catch up with old friends and make new ones.

“Once again, I would like to thank our naming rights sponsor, Elders, and all our sponsors. Without them, the Show could not go on.”
